Where do I find the roman numerals? I went to my insert page and went into symbols, but no luck.....Please help!!!

Your post was helpful, Ms. Barnhill, because Roman Numerals are NOT just regular letters on the keyboard. In fact, Arial Unicode MS (Number Forms) will give you the following: 

But more precisely, these characters should be connected with contiguous lines above and below, which I found (more or less) in Batang (Number Forms), which is shown below: 

Notice the Roman numeral for "3."  Connected, contiguous lines above and below.  Of course, nothing's perfect, but the characters for "4, 6, 7, 8, 9" are so close together that it almost looks contiguous.  

In my opinion, this font is more representational of true Roman Numerals than either the letters on the keyboard or Arial Unicode MS.  

But the choice is yours...

1. If you mean "to put them in text", type the characters i, ii, iii, iv and so on. You don't need any special characters.
2. If you want to autonumber paragraphs, select the paragraphs you want to number, then in the Home tab of the ribbon, in the Paragraph group, click the down arrow next to the "Numbering" icon (here it is the second icon in the group) and select a numbering scheme that uses roman numerals.
3. If it's roman page numbers you want, double-click in the header/footer area and you should see the Header& Footer Tools Design tab> click the Page numbers icon in the Header and Footer group, then select Format Page Number..., then choose a suitable numbering scheme. Then don't forget to insert a page number :-)

Thank you so much Peter, I guess I just thought I'd find them in the "symbols" area so they looked cooler......but I never thought to just use the regular numbers and letters! (hanging head in shame)!

As far as I can tell, "Batang" does not come with Windows 10, nor with Word 2013, and it seems Microsoft wants to charge as much as $129 for it. Yeah right!

I'm using Word 2013 and what I found to look best (good enough for me) are simply the BOLD Capital letters of "Times New Roman" (go figure). I'd show you, but I guess I can't use Times New Roman here.

For numbers greater than 4,999 you'll need one or more overbars. There's a few ways to do an overbar, but the one that looks best to me can be done by inserting a symbol. Let's say you want to represent 106,748. Using Times New Roman, BOLD, type capital "C", go to Insert -> Symbol -> More Symbols (the shortcut to get there is Alt-n-u-m), then for font (Alt-f) choose "(normal text)", then in the lower right of the dialog (Alt-c), choose "Character code: 0305" and at the top right, the Subset should automatically switch to "Combining Diacritical Marks". If it doesn't, make sure you typed the letter "C" using Times New Roman, but in any case, you need to choose "(normal text)" or some other font that gives you "Combining Diacritical Marks" and a valid symbol at 0305. Next, back to the lower right corner (Alt-m), make sure it says "from: Unicode (hex)", then finally press the Insert button (Alt-i, left arrow, Enter). Now your "C" should have an overbar. Next type "V" and when you go back to Insert -> Symbol (Alt-n-u), the last symbol that was used should always appear as the first choice in the upper left of the pull-down, so press Enter (or click the symbol) and your "V" should have its overbar, too. (If not, check all those previous steps again.) Last type "MDCCXLVII" and your final result should be the Roman numeral for 106,748:  C̅V̅MDCCXLVII

I had mixed results simply using the "0305 Alt-x" shortcut. Sometimes I could type the letter immediately followed by the number "0305" (no space) and then Alt-x and it usually inserts the overbar, but sometimes it didn't work correctly. However, going up to the Insert Symbols dialog and making sure all the options were correct always worked.

Hope that helps.
